DIANA and LOCKERBIE and 9 11

Princess Diana died in 1997. The Diana inquest should begin in October 2007.

Will the evidence be manipulated? Will all the key players be controlled by the security services?

It has been alleged that the Lockerbie Bomb trial was entirely fixed by the security services in order to cover up the alleged crimes of the spooks.

It has been suggested that the recording of a telephone conversation between Diana and her friend James Gilbey may or may not be played to the jury at the Diana inquest. Diana inquest may hear 'Squidgy' tapes

Michael Mansfield, QC, representing Mohamed Fayed, said Diana believed she was being watched by the security services in the 1990s.

In the tapes, published in 1992, but recorded in 1989 or 1990, Mr Gilbey, a car salesman, calls Diana "squidgy".

A former royal protection officer, Ken Wharfe, has claimed that the security services were responsible for the squidgy tapes.

Mr Fayed, whose son, Dodi, was killed along with Diana and their driver in Paris, says that the recording should be examined at the inquest.

The coroner, in charge of the inquest, is Lord Justice Scott Baker.

He has asked how the recording made in 1989 or 1990 could be relevant to Diana's death in 1997.

Mr Mansfied says an expert, John Nelson, supports the princess's idea that she had been under surveillance by MI5.

According to Mr Mansfield: "What Mr Nelson's report relates to is that the public explanation that has been given, that it was an amateur radio ham, was plainly not right."

Lord Justice Scott Baker states: "I'm not persuaded at the moment."

At the Diana inquest, the jury will hear about:

the treatment of the princess at the crash scene, the journey to the hospital, her treatment at hospital, the embalming of princess's body, her post-mortem examination, the claim that she was engaged, claims that she was pregnant, the bodyguards' evidence, and Henri Paul.

Will the Diana inquest hear that Fayed made his money after he married Samira Khashoggi, the sister of the international arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi, who employed him in his import business in Saudi Arabia.

Will the Diana inquest hear the alleged the evidence of former spy Richard Tomlinson:

"In 1992 I was working on an operation to recover high-tech weapons from the former Soviet Union. This operation was being conducted in collaboration with a very powerful arms dealer whose exact identity I did not know.

"When I read the file I discovered that this arms dealer was in very frequent contact with Mr Mohamed Al Fayed. I saw that the MI6 informant supplying this information had a code beginning with P, followed by several numbers. As this source was mentioned several times I tried to find out who it was. It was a Frenchman who was head of security at the Ritz Hotel." - Shaphan: December 2006

Wallace Hilliard,Khashoggi's lackey, bought Huffman Aviation in 1999, and hired Rudi Dekkers, a Dutchman, to run it. The following year, Hilliard's LearJet was stopped on the runway at Orlando Executive Airport by armed DEA agents.

At Huffman, too, the CIA was a silent partner. Sander Hickes, a reporter for the Long Island Press, found that Hilliard "did business with Myron Du Bain, who worked alongside late ex-CIA director John McCone on the boards of several banks. Du Bain was chairman of the Fireman's Fund Insurance Company in 1981 when the company announced plans to acquire Employers Health, an insurance company cofounded by Hilliard."9

In July, Daniel Hopsicker, after a two-year investigation into Huffman Aviation, offered from his MadCowMorningNews web soapbox the suggestion that Mohammed Atta had been engaged "in a lucrative drug trafficking operation which linked Osama bin Laden's thugs and drug lieutenants to their equally-thuggish American counterparts. This places the two terrorists at the same airport where DEA agents brandishing submachine guns seized a Lear jet belonging to the owner of the flight school [Hilliard] where Atta and Al-shehhi were taking lessons ... at that very moment."

DEA agents, Hopsicker wrote, "discovered 43 pounds of heroin aboard Hilliard's Lear. The Orlando Sentinel hailed the bust as 'the largest seizure in Central Florida's history.' After we'd learned the whole story, we discovered the bust had been an accident, carried out by low-level DEA operatives not clued-in to the protected nature of the trade. Nor was this the only time Hilliard's name came up in connection with narcotics trafficking."10

Likewise, Hilliard's Saudi boss would soon be immersed in criminal activity of his own -- with direct ties to terrorism -- in Armenia. Banking fraud was rampant there, Global News Wire reported in August, 2004, "thanks to the Arab millionaire AdnanKhashoggi - an active partner of Armenian businessmen in the illicit drug and arms trades." Khashoggi's first bucket-shop banking operation was a branch of the Caucasus Investment Bank in Susa. In quick succession, with the assistance of Abu Muslum, an Arab businessman, he opened the Hamaz and Beit ul-Muqaddas banks.

Rovsan Novruzoglu, a political scientist and director of the International Strategic Research Center in Azerbaijan, observes that Adnan Khashoggi's banks "played a big part in the formation of terrorist camps and in the opening of laboratories for developing chemical and bacteriological weapons in Nagornyy Karabakh."11
